The tibia and fibula of right leg fractured by a kick from a horse when Sgt. Moodie [sic] was on a general watering parade on duty. There is still discharge from 2 open orifices, most probably kept up by diseased bone. Sgt. Moddie [sic] has seen hard service in India and the Crimea, which may have weakened the constitution and prevents the proper union of the bones. He was wounded at Chillianwallah.
He is unfit for further service in consequence of impaired use of right leg after serious compound fracture by kick from a horse [Chatham May 12th 1858].
